Greetings Nakatsuji has meant "metals" for more than 90 years. We know what you need,and we've got the technology to give it to you. Nakatsuji Limited is a globally-oriented marketing concern offering complete metal services throughout the world. We aim to meet the needs of our increasingly diverse clientele as new markets are created. Our Recycling Division has accepted the challenge of building a recycling system based on the goal of "zero waste" of used office automation equipment. This will contribute to environmental conservation by providing a full range of services in the processing of metals that also includes non-ferrous metals and rare earth metals. Our Cold Forging Division has introduced a mass-production technology that uses full enclosed die forging, and it has developed a quality management system in obtaining ISO 9000 certification. We believe that this will build customer confidence in our company. Nakatsuji's vision of our own role in the metals industry is based on a truly global understanding of the world market. We are an energetic company with unique technology. We aim to do business with you on an optimal scale as we work toward the development of an optimal world market. In the years to come, we are pleased to be of even greater service to our many customers world-wide. Tsunefumi Nakatsuji, President
